Just in time for Halloween 2019, The Biscuit is highlighting our city’s latest trivia craze, “Hanchett or Hatchet.” This delightfully giddy (and gory) local game show features famed Charlotte historian, **[Tom Hanchett](https://www.historysouth.org/about/)**, testing the historical knowledge of his fellow citizens — with an unfortunate outcome for anyone who gets their Charlotte history wrong. Hey, Tom takes his Queen City history very seriously. We’ll give this episode a PG-13 rating for mild suggested carnage and images of a respected historian entering a blood-thirsty trance.
